Finding it so hard to agree on boy names! We had a girl name pretty much straight away.

Unfortunately the only names we both like are my parters name (noel) or our dogs name (leonard) . We also both like Rex and my partner loves the name Fox which I'm not keen on. Any other suggestions? I'm not very keen on very long formal names as our surname is quite long and posh sounding.

I love your dog's name! Grin

Rex is great, I considered it for DS.

How about Theo or Theodore? Rudy, Otis, Bruno?

Me and DH are in the opposite boat! Decided on boy names but can't agree on girl names!

How about:

Reuben
Arthur
Leon (similar to Leonard but also Noel spelt backwards!)
Marcus (mine and DH's preferred boys name)
Isaac

When are you due? Smile

oooh love Arthur and leon but I know lots of little leos and leons so might get confusing! I'm not due till september so we have a while to decide. I have so many girls names I love Suki , Nico, Olive, Josephine if that helps!
